The Opportunity
We are seeking a nurse for a 69-year-old female client who is a quadriplegic with a trach. She is described by everyone who meets her as "super sweet." Her home is a warm, clean, and joyful environment filled with her favorite thing: elephants!
When she isn't enjoying her elephant collection, she loves listening to gospel music, staying active with her church community, and binge-watching action and comedy movies.
